The race, in words
Lloyd Barker & Luke Carmichael finished 230th of 357 men's teams in the Doubles Open division at Brisbane 2026, in 1:18:47.
A station race more than a running one: 48% of the field beaten on the stations, against 22% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:34 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:11 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Brisbane gained about 1:13.
